If at any time Borrower elects to make a prepayment, and at such time, there are outstanding Advances under multiple Tranches, the Prepayment Charge shall be determined by applying the amount of such prepayment in the following order: first, to the outstanding principal amount (and accrued but unpaid interest thereon) of Advances outstanding under the Tranche with the latest initial funding date; second, to the outstanding principal amount (and accrued but unpaid interest thereon) of Advances outstanding under the Tranche with the next latest initial funding date and so on until the entire principal balance of all Advances made hereunder (and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon) is paid in full. Xxxxxxxx agrees that the Prepayment Charge is a reasonable calculation of the Lenders’ lost profits in view of the difficulties and impracticality of determining actual damages resulting from an early repayment of the Advances. Borrower shall prepay the outstanding amount of all principal and accrued interest through the prepayment date and the Prepayment Charge upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or any other prepayment hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and the Lenders agree to waive the Prepayment Charge if Agent and the Lenders (in their sole and absolute discretion) agree in writing to refinance the Advances prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if a payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately succeeding Business Day.

(b) Mandatory Prepayment. Within five (5) Business Days of receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from a Prepayment Event, Borrower shall at Agent’s election in its sole and absolute discretion, prepay the outstanding Advances by paying up to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, no Prepayment Charge shall apply to a prepayment in accordance with this Section 2.5(b).

2.6 End of Term Charge.

(a) On any date that Borrower partially prepays the outstanding Secured Obligations pursuant to Section 2.5, Borrower shall pay the Lenders a charge equal to 6.95% of the original principal amount of such Term Loan Advances being prepaid.

(b) On the earliest to occur of (i) the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the date that Borrower prepays the outstanding Secured Obligations (other than any inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) in full, or (iii) the date that the Secured Obligations become due and payable (including by acceleration of the Secured Obligations during an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10), Borrower shall pay the Lenders a charge equal to 6.95% of the aggregate original principal amount of all Term Loan Advances made hereunder minus the aggregate amount of payments made pursuant to Section 2.6(a) (collectively with any charge made pursuant to Section 2.6(a), the “End of Term Charge”).

(c) Notwithstanding the required payment date of such End of Term Charge, the applicable pro rata portion of the End of Term Charge shall be deemed earned by the Lenders as of each such date an applicable Term Loan Advance is made. For the avoidance of doubt, if a payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

2.7 Pro Rata Treatment. Each payment (including prepayment) on account of any fee and any reduction of the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the Term Commitments of the relevant Lender. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all of the rights, interests and obligations of each Lender under this Agreement and related Loan Documents, including security interests in the Collateral under this Agreement, shall be shared by the Lenders in the ratio of (a) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Xxxxxx’s Term Loan Advances to Borrower under this Agreement to (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term Loan Advances to Borrower under this Agreement. Each Lender shall promptly remit to the other Lender such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable repayment of each Lender’s portion of any Term Loan Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender receiving a scheduled payment shall not be responsible for determining whether the other Lender also received its scheduled payment on such date; provided, however, if it is later determined that a Lender received more than its ratable share of scheduled payments made on any date or dates, then such Lender shall remit to the other Lender such sums as may be necessary to ensure the ratable payment of such scheduled payments, as instructed by Agent. Any reference in this Agreement to an allocation between or sharing by the Lenders of any right, interest or obligation “ratably,” “proportionally” or in similar terms shall refer to this ratio. The provisions hereof shall apply irrespective of the time or order of attachment or perfection of security interests, or the time or order of filing or recording of financing statements.

2.8 Taxes; Increased Costs. Loan Parties, the Agent and the Lenders each hereby agree to the terms and conditions set forth on Addendum 1 attached hereto.

2.9 Treatment of Prepayment Charge and End of Term Charge. Each Loan Party agrees that any Prepayment Charge and any End of Term Charge payable shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early termination, and each Loan Party agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing and existing as of the Closing Date. The Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge shall also be payable in the event the Secured Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure, or by any other means. Each Loan Party expressly waives (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) the provisions of any present or future statute or law that prohibits or may prohibit the collection of the foregoing Prepayment Charge and End of Term Charge in connection with any such acceleration. Each Loan Party agrees (to the fullest extent that each may lawfully do so): (a) each of the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (b) each of the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (c) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge as a charge (and not interest) in the event of prepayment or acceleration; (d) each Loan Party shall be estopped from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Each Loan Party expressly acknowledges that their agreement to pay each of the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge to the Lenders as herein described was on the Closing Date and continues to be a material inducement to the Lenders to provide the Term Loans.

SECTION 3. SECURITY INTEREST

3.1 Grant of Security Interest. As security for the prompt and complete payment when due (whether on the payment dates or otherwise) of all the Secured Obligations, each Loan Party grants to Agent a security interest in all of such Loan Party’s right, title, and interest in, to and under all of such Loan Party’s personal property and other assets including without limitation the following (except as set forth herein) whether now owned or hereafter acquired (collectively, together with the Pledged Collateral, the “Collateral”): (a) Receivables; (b) Equipment; (c) Fixtures; (d) General Intangibles (other than Intellectual Property); (e) Inventory; (f) Investment Property; (g) Deposit Accounts; (h) Cash; (i) Goods; and (j) all other tangible and intangible personal property (other than Intellectual Property) of such Loan Party whether now or hereafter owned or existing, leased, consigned by or to, or acquired by, such Loan Party and wherever located, and any of such Loan Party’s property in the possession or under the control of Agent; and, to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds of each of the foregoing and all accessions to, substitutions and replacements for, and rents, profits and products of each of the foregoing; provided, however, that the Collateral shall include all Accounts and General Intangibles that consist of rights to payment and proceeds from the sale, licensing or disposition of all or any part, or rights in, the Intellectual Property (the “Rights to Payment”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a judicial authority (including a U.S. Bankruptcy Court) holds that a security interest in the underlying Intellectual Property is necessary to have a security interest in the Rights to Payment, then the Collateral shall automatically, and effective as of the date of this Agreement, include the Intellectual Property to the extent necessary to permit perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Rights to Payment.

3.2 Excluded Collateral. Notwithstanding the broad grant of the security interest set forth in Section 3.1, above, the Collateral shall not include any Excluded Assets.

3.3 Pledged Collateral.

(a) Each Loan Party hereby pledges, collaterally assigns and grants to Agent a security interest in the Pledged Collateral, as security for the performance of the Secured Obligations. Each Loan Party irrevocably waives any and all of its rights under provisions of any Organizational Documents of any Controlled Entity which is a limited liability company or limited partnership or stock corporation, and under the laws under which such Controlled Entity has been organized, to the extent such Loan Party has the legal capacity to do so and that such waiver is permitted, that would operate to (a) prohibit, restrict, condition or otherwise adversely affect the pledge hereunder or any enforcement action which may be taken in respect of this pledge or (b) otherwise conflict with the terms of this Section 3.3. Each Loan Party of which Equity Interests consisting of limited liability company or limited partnership interests or stock corporation constitute Pledged Collateral hereby irrevocably consents to the grant of the security interest provided for herein and to Agent or its nominee becoming a member or limited or general partner, as applicable, in such limited liability company or limited partnership or stock corporation, as applicable (including succeeding to any management rights appurtenant thereto), in connection with the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 10; provided that such successor member or partner, as applicable, then agrees in writing to be bound by, and a party to, the applicable Organizational Document pursuant to the terms therein.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any sums or other property paid or distributed upon or with respect to any of the Pledged Collateral, whether by dividend or redemption or upon the liquidation or dissolution or recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any issuer of the applicable Equity Interests or otherwise, shall, be paid over and delivered to Agent to be held by Agent as security for the payment in full in cash of all of the Secured Obligations, in each case, to the extent constituting Net Cash Proceeds. All payments received by a Loan Party shall, until paid or delivered to Agent, be held in trust for Agent, as security for the payment and performance in full of all of the Secured Obligations, and when paid, shall be deposited into a Deposit Account with respect to which Agent has an Account Control Agreement.

(c) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and at Agent’s written direction to the contrary, each Loan Party shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends and distributions paid in respect of Pledged Collateral owned by it, and, prior to any acceleration pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof and any election by Agent of any remedies pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof, each Loan Party shall be entitled to vote any Equity Interests owned by it and to give consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or consent, waiver or ratification be given by any Loan Party if the effect thereof would materially impair Agent’s rights with respect to the enforcement of its Lien on the Pledged Collateral or be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents. All rights of any Loan Party to receive cash dividends and distributions with respect to Pledged Collateral owned by such Loan Party and at Agent’s option, upon notice by Agent to the Parent, all rights to vote and give consents, waivers and ratifications with respect to such Pledged Collateral, shall terminate upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default.

3.4 Release; Agreements by Agent with respect to Pledged Collateral. The lien and security interest created hereunder shall be automatically released (a) with respect to all Collateral upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations in accordance with this Agreement (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement), (b) with respect to any Collateral that is the subject of a Transfer pursuant to clause (v) or clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Transfers, upon the consummation of such transaction or (c) if otherwise approved, authorized or ratified in writing by Agent in its sole discretion. Upon such release, Agent shall, upon the reasonable request and at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, assign, transfer and deliver to Borrower, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by Agent, except as to the fact that Agent does not continue to encumber the released assets, such Collateral or any part thereof, which shall be released in accordance with customary documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the release of such Collateral. Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and Lender, that if any Platform Company is consummating an initial public offering of its stock or any relevant follow on offering, that Agent shall enter into lockup or similar agreements reasonably requested by Parent or any underwriter with respect to Agent’s exercise of remedies with respect to the Pledged Collateral constituting Equity Interests the Platform Company that is the issuer in such offering, in each case at the sole cost and expense of Parent.

There is no decree, order, judgment, agreement, stipulation, arbitral award or other provision entered into in connection with any litigation or proceeding that obligates any Loan Party or Controlled Entity to grant licenses or ownership interest in any future Intellectual Property related to the operation or conduct of the business of Loan Parties or Controlled Entities or Products. No Loan Party or Controlled Entity has received any written notice or claim, or, to the knowledge of Loan Parties, oral notice or claim, challenging or questioning any Loan Party’s or Controlled Entity’s ownership in any Intellectual Property (or written notice of any claim challenging or questioning the ownership in any licensed Intellectual Property of the owner thereof) or suggesting that any third party has any claim of legal or beneficial ownership with respect thereto nor, to Loan Parties’ knowledge, is there a reasonable basis for any such claim. To the Loan Parties’ knowledge, neither the Loan Parties’ or Controlled Entitles’ use of its Intellectual Property nor the production and sale of Products materially infringes the Intellectual Property or other rights of others.

5.14 Capitalization; Platform Companies. The Loan Parties and Controlled Entities do not own any stock, partnership interest or other securities of any Person, except for Permitted Investments. Each Loan Party’s Investment in a Platform Company is owned directly by a Loan Party (and not through a subsidiary of such Loan Party, or any other Person). As of the Closing Date, Schedule 1 sets forth a true, correct and complete list of the Investments made or maintained by the Parent in a Platform Company and the Equity Interests owned, directly or indirectly, by the Parent in a Platform Company.

SECTION 6. INSURANCE; INDEMNIFICATION

The Loan Parties shall cause to be carried and maintained commercial general liability insurance, on an occurrence form, against risks customarily insured against in Loan Parties’ line of business. Such risks shall include the risks of bodily injury, including death, property damage, personal injury, advertising injury, and contractual liability per the terms of the indemnification agreement found in Section 6.3. The Loan Parties must maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 (or foreign currency equivalent, if applicable) of commercial general liability insurance for each occurrence. The Loan Parties have and agree to maintain a minimum of $2,000,000 of directors’ and officers’ insurance for each occurrence and $5,000,000 in the aggregate. So long as there are any Secured Obligations outstanding, the Loan Parties shall also cause to be carried and maintained insurance upon the Collateral, insuring against all risks of physical loss or damage howsoever caused, in an amount not less than the full replacement cost of the Collateral, provided that such insurance may be subject to standard exceptions and deductibles. If any Loan Party fails to obtain the insurance called for by this Section 6.1 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which such Loan Party is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or which may be required to preserve the Collateral, Agent may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Agent are immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the then highest rate applicable to the Secured Obligations, and secured by the Collateral. Agent will make reasonable efforts to provide Loan Parties with notice of Agent obtaining such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. No payments by Agent are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Agent’s waiver of any Event of Default.

6.2 Certificates. The Loan Parties shall deliver to Agent certificates of insurance that evidence compliance with the insurance obligations in Section 6.1 and the obligations contained in this Section 6.2.

Attached to the certificates of insurance will be additional insured endorsements for liability and lender’s loss payable endorsements for all risk property damage insurance. All certificates of insurance will provide for a minimum of thirty (30) days advance written notice to Agent of cancellation (other than cancellation for non-payment of premiums, for which ten (10) days’ advance written notice shall be sufficient). Any failure of Agent to scrutinize such insurance certificates for compliance is not a waiver of any of Agent’s rights, all of which are reserved. The Loan Parties shall provide Agent with copies of each insurance policy other than any director’s and officer’s insurance policies of the Loan Parties, and upon entering or amending any insurance policy required hereunder, Loan Parties shall provide Agent with copies of such policies and shall promptly deliver to Agent updated insurance certificates with respect to such policies.

6.3 Indemnity. Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify and hold Agent, the Lenders and their officers, directors, employees, agents, in-house attorneys, representatives and shareholders (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities (including such claims, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities based on liability in tort, including strict liability in tort), including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defense (including those incurred upon any appeal) (collectively, “Liabilities”), that may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the administration of such credit, or in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, or any actions or failures to act in connection therewith, or arising out of the disposition or utilization of the Collateral, excluding in all cases Liabilities to the extent resulting solely from any Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. This Section 6.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. In no event shall any Indemnified Person be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings).

SECTION 10. REMEDIES

10.1 General. Upon and during the continuance of any one or more Events of Default, Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, accelerate and demand payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations together with a Prepayment Charge and declare them to be immediately due and payable (provided, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 9.5, all of the Secured Obligations (including, without limitation, the Prepayment Charge and the End of Term Charge) shall automatically be accelerated and made due and payable, in each case without any further notice or act). Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to: (a) exercisable following the occurrence of an Event of Default, (i) sign such Loan Party’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any account or drafts against account debtors; (ii) demand, collect, sue, and give releases to any account debtor for monies due, settle and adjust disputes and claims about the accounts directly with account debtors, and compromise, prosecute, or defend any action, claim, case, or proceeding about any Collateral (including filing a claim or voting a claim in any bankruptcy case in Agent’s or such Loan Party’s name, as Agent may elect); (iii) make, settle, and adjust all claims under such Loan Party’s insurance policies; (iv) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, or other claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; (v) transfer the Collateral into the name of Agent or a third party as the UCC permits; and (vi) receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to a Loan Party; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred, (i) endorse a Loan Party’s name on any checks, payment instruments, or other forms of payment or security; and (ii) notify all account debtors to pay Agent directly. Each Loan Party hereby appoints Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign such Loan Party’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Secured Obligations have been satisfied in full and the Loan Documents have been terminated. Agent’s foregoing appointment as such Loan Party’s attorney in fact, and all of Agent’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Secured Obligations have been fully repaid and performed and the Loan Documents have been terminated. Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, exercise all rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents or otherwise available to it under the UCC and other applicable law, including the right to release, hold, sell, lease, liquidate, collect, realize upon, or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral and the right to occupy, utilize, process and commingle the Collateral. All Agent’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

10.2 Collection; Foreclosure. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, at any time or from time to time, apply, collect, liquidate, sell in one or more sales, lease or otherwise dispose of, any or all of the Collateral, in its then condition or following any commercially reasonable preparation or processing, in such order as Agent may elect. Any such sale may be made either at public or private sale at its place of business or elsewhere. Each Loan Party agrees that any such public or private sale may occur upon ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice to such Loan Party. Agent may require any Loan Party to assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at a place designated by Agent that is reasonably convenient to Agent and such Loan Party. The proceeds of any sale, disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by Agent in the following order of priorities:

First, to Agent and the Lenders in an amount sufficient to pay in full Agent’s and the Lenders’ reasonable costs and professionals’ and advisors’ fees and expenses as described in Section 11.12;

Second, to the Lenders in an amount equal to the then unpaid amount of the Secured Obligations (including principal, interest, and the Default Rate interest), in such order and priority as Agent may choose in its sole discretion; and

Finally, after the full and final payment in Cash of all of the Secured Obligations (other than inchoate obligations), to any creditor holding a junior Lien on the Collateral, or to the Loan Parties or their representatives or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Agent shall be deemed to have acted reasonably in the custody, preservation and disposition of any of the Collateral if it complies with the obligations of a secured party under the UCC.

10.3 No Waiver. Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any of the Collateral for the benefit of the Loan Parties or any other Person, and each Loan Party expressly waives all rights, if any, to require Agent to marshal any Collateral.

10.4 Pledged Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (a) at Agent’s election and upon notice to the applicable Loan Party, Agent may vote any Equity Interests constituting Pledged Collateral (whether or not the same shall have been transferred into its name or the name of its nominee or nominees) for any lawful purpose, including, without limitation, for the liquidation of the assets of the issuer thereof, and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of such Equity Interests and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing Agent the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Loan Party, with full power of substitution, to do so); (b) Agent may demand, sue for, collect or make any compromise or settlement Agent deems suitable in respect of any Equity Interests constituting Pledged Collateral; (c) Agent may sell, resell, assign and deliver, or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Pledged Collateral, for cash or credit or both and upon such terms at such place or places, at such time or times and to such entities or other persons as Agent deems expedient, all without demand for performance by any Loan Party or any notice or advertisement whatsoever except as expressly provided herein or as may otherwise be required by law; (d) Agent may cause all or any part of the Pledged Collateral to be transferred into its name or the name of its nominee or nominees; and (e) at Agent’s election and upon notice thereof to the applicable Loan Party, Agent may exercise all membership or partnership, as applicable, rights, powers and privileges to the same extent as the applicable Loan Party is entitled to exercise such rights, powers and privileges. Agent may enforce its rights hereunder without any other notice and without compliance with any other condition precedent now or hereunder imposed by statute, rule of law or otherwise (all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Loan Party, to the fullest extent permitted by law). Each Loan Party recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale or other disposition of its Equity Interests by reason of certain prohibitions contained in securities laws and other applicable laws, but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers. Each Loan Party agrees that any such private sales may be at prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if sold at public sales and that such private sales shall not by reason thereof be deemed not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of Equity Interests to register such securities for public sale under securities laws or other applicable laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. In connection with the sale of Pledged Collateral by Agent during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Loan Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause each issuer of the Equity Interests contemplated to be sold, to execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such issuer to execute and deliver, all at such Loan Party’s expense, all such instruments and documents, and to do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of Agent, advisable to exempt such Equity Interests from registration under the provisions of applicable laws, and to make all amendments to such instruments and documents which, in the opinion of Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of applicable laws and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto.

10.5 Cumulative Remedies. The rights, powers and remedies of Agent hereunder shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given by statute or rule of law and are cumulative. The exercise of any one or more of the rights, powers and remedies provided herein shall not be construed as a waiver of or election of remedies with respect to any other rights, powers and remedies of Agent.

10.6 German Security Documents. Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as trustee (Treuhänder) and administrator for the purpose of accepting and administering the German Security Documents for and on behalf of the Secured Parties and the Collateral Agent hereby accepts such appointment on the terms and subject to the conditions set out in this Section 10.5. The Collateral Agent shall (i) in case of non-accessory (nicht akzessorische) security rights created under the German Security Documents, hold and administer and, as the case may be, enforce such Liens and/or Collateral in its own name, but as trustee (Treuhänder) for the account of the Secured Parties; and (ii) in case of accessory (akzessorische) security rights created by way of pledge or other accessory instruments under the German Security Documents, administer and, as the case may be, enforce any and all Liens and/or Collateral as agent in the name of, and for and on behalf of, the Secured Parties, or in its own name in respect of any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim for the account of the Secured Parties. Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent (whether or not by or through employees or agents) (i) to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to or conferred upon the Collateral Agent under the German Security Documents together with such powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (ii) to take such action on its behalf as may from time to time be authorized under or in connection with the German Security Documents. By accepting the benefits of the Liens and/or Collateral, each Person to whom a Secured Obligation is owed shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the German Security Documents as a Secured Party.

With respect to the German Security Documents and the Collateral granted under any such German Security Document, each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) (including any future Lender or future other Secured Party) upon becoming a party to the Loan Documents) hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent (whether or not by or through employees or agents) to execute for and on its behalf any and all German Security Documents to which it is a party and to accept as its attorney-in-fact (Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory right made to any such Lender (and, if applicable, each such other Secured Party) in relation to this Agreement under the German Security Documents. Each Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent will be exempted to the extent legally possible from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code and may delegate its power (including the release from the restrictions of section 181 of the German Civil Code) by way of granting a substitute power of attorney. The Collateral Agent may take such action (including, without limitation, the exercise of all rights, discretions or powers and the granting of consents or releases or the engagement of a notary for execution of any documents required in notarial form) or, as the case may be, refrain from taking such action under or pursuant to the German Security Documents as all Lenders may specifically direct the Collateral Agent in writing from time to time.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any resignation by Collateral Agent shall not be effective with respect to its rights and obligations under any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim or the Collateral which secures such Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim until such rights and obligations have been assigned to, and assumed by, the successor Collateral Agent. The retiring Collateral Agent will reasonably cooperate in assigning its rights under any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim to any such successor Collateral Agent and will reasonably cooperate in transferring all rights under any Collateral governed by German law to such successor Collateral Agent.

10.7 Parallel Debt Undertaking. For purposes of (i) taking security in, or subject to the laws of, Germany and (ii) ensuring the continued validity of such security, each Secured Party and each Loan Party agrees:

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any Loan Document, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to pay to Collateral Agent, as a creditor in its own right and not as a representative of the Secured Parties, an amount (the “Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim”) equal to each Corresponding Obligation owed by such Loan Party by itself under the Loan Documents as and when such Corresponding Obligation is due and payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or would be due and payable but for any discharge resulting from any failure of a Secured Party to take appropriate steps, in insolvency or similar proceedings affecting such Loan Party, to preserve its entitlement to be paid such Corresponding Obligation. Each Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim will be payable in the currency or currencies of the relevant Corresponding Obligations.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand and enforce payment of the Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim from a Loan Party, irrespective of any discharge of such Loan Party’s obligation to pay the Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim resulting from failure by Collateral Agent to take appropriate steps, in insolvency or similar proceedings affecting such Loan Party, to preserve its entitlement to be paid such Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim. The Collateral Agent’s right to enforce the Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim includes, without limitation, the exercise of any remedy available to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in law or in equity.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim shall be reduced if and to the extent the Lenders (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) shall have irrevocably received payment in full of the corresponding amount in respect of the Corresponding Obligations; (ii) any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to a Lender (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) in respect of a Corresponding Obligation shall be reduced if and to the extent that Collateral Agent has irrevocably received payment in full of the corresponding amount in respect of Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim; (iii) the aggregate amount of Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claims shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Corresponding Obligations at any time.

(d) Subject to the limitation set forth in clause (c) above, the rights of the Lenders (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) to demand, receive and enforce payment of amounts payable by any Loan Party in respect of the Corresponding Obligations are several, separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Collateral Agent to demand, receive and enforce payment of the Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim in its own name.

(e) Each Lender (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, perform any act required in connection with the enforcement of any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim, including, without limitation, joining in any legal proceedings in respect of Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim or the German Security Documents.

(f) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to require a Secured Party (other than the Collateral Agent) to join with the Collateral Agent in any legal proceedings as co-claimant with Collateral Agent in respect of any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim or the Collateral granted under any German Security Document.

SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent and duration of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede and replace in their entirety any prior proposals, term sheets, non-disclosure or confidentiality agreements, letters, negotiations or other documents or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof or thereof.

(b) Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.3(b). The Required Lenders and each Loan Party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent and the Loan Parties party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (i) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (ii) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest (or fee payable hereunder) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (B) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 11.3(b) without the written consent of such Lender; (C) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Loan Parties of any of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release a Loan Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; or (D) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11.18 or Addendum 3 without the written consent of the Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lender, the Agent and all future holders of the Loans.

11.4 No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

11.5 No Waiver. The powers conferred upon Agent and the Lenders by this Agreement are solely to protect its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent or the Lenders to exercise any such powers. No omission or delay by Agent or the Lenders at any time to enforce any right or remedy reserved to it, or to require performance of any of the terms, covenants or provisions hereof by the Loan Parties at any time designated, shall be a waiver of any such right or remedy to which Agent or the Lenders is entitled, nor shall it in any way affect the right of Agent or the Lenders to enforce such provisions thereafter.

11.6 Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in any document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto shall be for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Sections 6.3 and 11.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

11.7 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on each Loan Party and its permitted assigns (if any). No Loan Party shall assign its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents without Agent’s express prior written consent, and any such attempted assignment shall be void and of no effect. Agent and the Lenders may assign, transfer, or endorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents without prior notice to the Loan Parties, and all of such rights shall inure to the benefit of Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors and assigns; provided that as long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, neither Agent nor any Lender may assign, transfer or endorse its rights hereunder or under the Loan Documents to any party that is a direct competitor of any Loan Party or a distressed debt or vulture fund (in each case, as reasonably determined by Agent in consultation with the Loan Parties), it being acknowledged that in all cases, any transfer to an Affiliate of any Lender or Agent shall be allowed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) in connection with any assignment by a Lender as a result of a forced divestiture at the request of any regulatory agency, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply and Agent and the Lenders may assign, transfer or indorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any Person or party and (y) in connection with a Lender’s own financing or securitization transactions, the restrictions set forth herein shall not apply and Agent and the Lenders may assign, transfer or indorse its rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to any Person or party providing such financing or formed to undertake such securitization transaction and any transferee of such Person or party upon the occurrence of a default, event of default or similar occurrence with respect to such financing or securitization transaction; provided that no such sale, transfer, pledge or assignment under this clause (y) shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such Person or party for such Lender as a party hereto until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective assignment agreement from such Person or party in form satisfactory to Agent executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto, and shall have received such other information regarding such assignee as Agent reasonably shall require. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Loan Parties, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender(s), and the Term Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Loan Parties, the Agent and the Lender(s) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Loan Parties and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

11.8 Participations. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations and proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor sections)of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions in Addendum 1 attached hereto (subject to the requirements and limitations herein and therein, including the requirements under Section 7 of Addendum 1 attached hereto (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 7 of Addendum 1 attached hereto shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.7 and subject to the same restrictions and covenants that would have applied to a Lender; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Addendum 1 attached hereto, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

11.9 Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, excluding the Foreign Security Documents, have been negotiated and delivered to Agent and the Lenders in the State of California, and shall have been accepted by Agent and the Lenders in the State of California. Payment to Agent and the Lenders by the Loan Parties of the Secured Obligations is due in the State of California. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, excluding the Foreign Security Documents, shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of laws of any other jurisdiction.

11.10 Consent to Jurisdiction and Venue. All judicial proceedings (to the extent that the reference requirement of Section 11.11 is not applicable) arising in or under or related to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be brought in any state or federal court located in the State of California. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto generally and unconditionally: (a) consents to nonexclusive personal jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, State of California; (b) waives any objection as to jurisdiction or venue in Santa Clara County, State of California; (c) agrees not to assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue in the aforesaid courts; and (d) irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Service of process on any party hereto in any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if given in accordance with the requirements for notice set forth in Section 11.2, and shall be deemed effective and received as set forth in Section 11.2. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of either party to bring proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

11.11 Mutual Waiver of Jury Trial / Judicial Reference.

(a) Because disputes arising in connection with complex financial transactions are most quickly and economically resolved by an experienced and expert Person and the parties wish applicable state and federal laws to apply (rather than arbitration rules), the parties desire that their disputes be resolved by a judge applying such applicable laws. EACH OF THE LOAN PARTIES, AGENT AND THE LENDERS SPECIFICALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, THIRD PARTY CLAIM OR ANY OTHER CLAIM (COLLECTIVELY, “CLAIMS”) ASSERTED BY THE LOAN PARTIES AGAINST AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE OR BY AGENT, THE LENDERS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE ASSIGNEE AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY. This waiver extends to all such Claims, including Claims that involve Persons other than Agent, the Loan Parties and the Lenders; Claims that arise out of or are in any way connected to the relationship among the Loan Parties, Agent and the Lenders; and any Claims for damages, breach of contract, tort, specific performance, or any equitable or legal relief of any kind, arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan Document.

(b) If the waiver of jury trial set forth in Section 11.11(a) is ineffective or unenforceable, the parties agree that all Claims shall be resolved by reference to a private judge sitting without a jury, pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, before a mutually acceptable referee or, if the parties cannot agree, a referee selected by the Presiding Judge of the Santa Clara County, California. Such proceeding shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California, with California rules of evidence and discovery applicable to such proceeding.

(c) In the event Claims are to be resolved by judicial reference, either party may seek from a court identified in Section 11.10, any prejudgment order, writ or other relief and have such prejudgment order, writ or other relief enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law notwithstanding that all Claims are otherwise subject to resolution by judicial reference.

11.12 Professional Fees. Each Loan Party promises to pay Agent’s and the Lenders’ fees and expenses necessary to finalize the loan documentation, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees, UCC searches, filing costs, and other miscellaneous expenses. In addition, each Loan Party promises to pay any and all reasonable attorneys’ and other professionals’ fees and expenses incurred by Agent and the Lenders after the Closing Date in connection with or related to: (a) the Loan; (b) the administration, collection, or enforcement of the Loan; (c) the amendment or modification of the Loan Documents; (d) any waiver, consent, release, or termination under the Loan Documents; (e) the protection, preservation, audit, field exam, sale, lease, liquidation, or disposition of Collateral or the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral; (f) any legal, litigation, administrative, arbitration, or out of court proceeding in connection with or related to the Loan Parties or the Collateral, and any appeal or review thereof; and (g) any bankruptcy, restructuring, reorganization, assignment for the benefit of creditors, workout, foreclosure, or other action related to the Loan Parties, the Collateral, the Loan Documents, and including representing Agent or the Lenders in any adversary proceeding or contested matter commenced or continued by or on behalf of any Loan Party’s estate, and any appeal or review thereof.

11.13 Confidentiality. Agent and the Lenders acknowledge that certain items of Collateral and information provided to Agent and the Lenders by the Loan Parties are confidential and proprietary information of the Loan Parties, if and to the extent such information either (x) is marked as confidential by the Loan Parties at the time of disclosure, or (y) should reasonably be understood to be confidential (the “Confidential Information”). Accordingly, Agent and the Lenders agree that any Confidential Information it may obtain in the course of acquiring, administering, or perfecting Agent’s security interest in the Collateral shall not be disclosed to any other Person or entity in any manner whatsoever, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Loan Parties, except that Agent and the Lenders may disclose any such information: (a) to its Affiliates and its partners, investors, lenders, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, counsel, accountants, counsel, representative and other professional advisors if Agent or the Lenders in their sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information in connection with such party’s responsibilities in connection with the Loan or this Agreement and, provided that such recipient of such Confidential Information either (i) agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of this paragraph or (ii) is otherwise subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against the disclosure of Confidential Information; (b) if such information is generally available to the public or to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or becomes available to Agent or any Lender, or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party; (c) if required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any governmental authority having or claiming to have jurisdiction over Agent or the Lenders and any rating agency; (d) if required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, to the extent permitted or deemed advisable by Agent’s or the Lenders’ counsel; (e) to comply with any legal requirement or law applicable to Agent or the Lenders; (f) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under any Loan Document (including Agent’s sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral after default); (g) to any participant or assignee of Agent or the Lenders or any prospective participant or assignee, provided, that such participant or assignee or prospective participant or assignee is subject to confidentiality restrictions that reasonably protect against the disclosure of Confidential Information; (h) to any investor or potential investor (and each of their respective Affiliates or clients) in the Agent or Lender (or each of their respective Affiliates); provided that such investor, potential investor, Affiliate or client is subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to the Confidential Information; (i) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrower; or (j) otherwise with the prior consent of the Loan Parties; provided, that any disclosure made in violation of this Agreement shall not affect the obligations of the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates or any guarantor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

11.14 Assignment of Rights. Each Loan Party acknowledges and understands that Agent or the Lenders may, subject to Section 11.7, sell and assign all or part of its interest hereunder and under the Loan Documents to any Person or entity (an “Assignee”). After such assignment the term “Agent” or “Lender” as used in the Loan Documents shall mean and include such Assignee, and such Assignee shall be vested with all rights, powers and remedies of Agent and the Lenders hereunder with respect to the interest so assigned; but with respect to any such interest not so transferred, Agent and the Lenders shall retain all rights, powers and remedies hereby given. No such assignment by Agent or the Lenders shall relieve any Loan Party of any of its obligations hereunder. the Lenders agrees that in the event of any transfer by it of the promissory note(s) (if any), it will endorse thereon a notation as to the portion of the principal of the promissory note(s), which shall have been paid at the time of such transfer and as to the date to which interest shall have been last paid thereon.

11.15 Revival of Secured Obligations. This Agreement and the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective if any petition is filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, if any Loan Party becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan Party’s assets, or if any payment or transfer of Collateral is recovered from Agent or the Lenders. The Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations and Collateral security shall continue to be effective, or shall be revived or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations or any transfer of Collateral to Agent, or any part thereof is rescinded, avoided or avoidable, reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by, or is recovered from, Agent, the Lenders or by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment, performance, or transfer of Collateral had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, avoided, avoidable, restored, returned, or recovered, the Loan Documents and the Secured Obligations shall be deemed, without any further action or documentation, to have been revived and reinstated except to the extent of the full, final, and indefeasible payment to Agent or the Lenders in Cash.

11.16 Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

11.17 No Third Party Beneficiaries. No provisions of the Loan Documents are intended, nor will be interpreted, to provide or create any third-party beneficiary rights or any other rights of any kind in any Person other than Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties unless specifically provided otherwise herein, and, except as otherwise so provided, all provisions of the Loan Documents will be personal and solely among Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties.

12.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of Guarantors under Section 12.1 are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the obligations of Borrower or any other Guarantor under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by all applicable Laws, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 12.2 that the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(d) any lien or security interest granted as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected.

Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower or any other Guarantor under this Agreement or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting any provisions of this Section 12, each Guarantor waives and agrees not to assert, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other defences or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Section. Each Guarantor waives the benefit of California Civil Code Section 2815 permitting termination or revocation of the continuing nature of this guarantee and the benefits of any rights and defences which are or may become available by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 through 2855, 2899 and 3433.

12.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of Guarantors under this Section 12 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and Guarantors jointly and severally agree that they shall indemnify the Agent and Lenders on demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees of counsel) incurred by such Persons in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

12.4 Subrogation. Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that, until the payment and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Term Commitments, they shall not exercise any right or remedy arising by reason of any performance by them of their guarantee in Section 12.1, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

12.5 Remedies. Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between Guarantors, on one hand, and the Agent and Lenders, on the other hand, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 10) for purposes of Section 12.1 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Xxxxxxxx and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by Guarantors for purposes of Section 12.1.

12.6 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Section 12 is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

12.7 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any provincial, territorial or state corporate law, or any U.S. or non-U.S. state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 12.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 12.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, the Agent, any Lender or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

12.8 Dutch Guarantee Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12 and any Lien, the guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Loan Party incorporated in The Netherlands expressed to be assumed by it in this Section 12 and/or Lien shall be deemed not to be assumed by such Loan Party to the extent that the same would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of section 2:98(c) of the Dutch Civil Code or any other applicable financial assistance rules, under any relevant jurisdictions and the provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents shall be construed accordingly

12.9 German Guarantee Limitation. In relation to the ATAI Germany, the following shall apply in addition to the provisions set out in this Section 12.7 above, as long as ATAI Germany is incorporated as a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft), with respect to any obligations or liabilities owed by the Parent or any other direct or indirect shareholder of ATAI Germany or a Subsidiary of such shareholder (other than any directly or indirectly owned Subsidiaries of ATAI Germany) (collectively the “AG’s Shareholder Obligations”):

(i)

Except as provided in (x) paragraph (ii) below and (y) in relation to any obligations or liabilities owed by ATAI Germany or its Subsidiaries, no guarantee or indemnity shall be enforceable with respect to any AG’s Shareholder Obligation;

(ii)

if, at the time a demand for payment is made under this Agreement, a domination or profit and loss transfer agreement (Beherrschungs- oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) within the meaning of § 291 German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) with the Parent is in force (“DPLTA”), the guarantee or indemnity granted by ATAI Germany or directly or indirectly owned Subsidiaries of ATAI Germany under this Agreement to secure any obligations or liabilities with respect to the AG’s Shareholder Obligations shall be valid and enforceable, except if an to the extent the payment under the guarantee or indemnity will, or must be expected to, result in an annual loss to ATAI Germany which would not be, or cannot be expected to be, compensated for by a compensation claim under the DPLTA which compensation claim could be accounted for in the balance sheet of ATAI Germany at full value (vollwertig).

The limitations on enforcement set out in in this Section 12.9 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the enforcement of any other payment obligation created or incurred by ATAI Germany under the Loan Documents (including any Collateral Agent Parallel Debt Claim, if and to the extent such payment obligation guarantees and/or secures a payment of AG’ Shareholder Obligation (other than any of directly or indirectly owned Subsidiaries of ATAI Germany).

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as a restriction or limitation of (i) the enforcement of the guarantee to the extent such guarantee guarantees obligations of ATAI Germany itself in its capacity as Borrower or obligations of any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries including in each case their legal successors or (ii) the enforcement of any claim of any Secured Party against a Borrower (in such capacity) under this Agreement.
